Chapter 2291 Dangerous situation
Even if Yan Xun is Yan Yun's legitimate son, it would be extremely difficult to take the position of the city lord without Zhang Yang's order. Otherwise, it would be against Zhang Yang. This is the most terrible thing. No one wants to offend Zhang Yang.
That's true. Even if these commanders are willing to assist Yan Xun, they dare not call him the city lord directly.
Yan Xun naturally understood this truth and didn't take it seriously at all. Yan Yun had already told him that Zhang Yang was the savior of Miaojiang, and Yan Xun also admired Zhang Yang very much. If Zhang Yang chose someone else as the city lord, Yan Xun would not have any complaints.
"Hmph, Yang Zhentian, a traitor, has gradually armed the Yang family through the city lord's mansion over the years. Now that his father has died, he is joining forces with other forces to seize power. If he falls into my hands, I will definitely make him live and die."
After hearing the commander's words, Yan Xun shouted angrily, stood up suddenly, and almost gritted his teeth and said such words.
It turned out that after the news of Yan Yun's death was sent back to Qingcheng, many people were ready to move. Everyone knew very well that if they were in the position of the city lord, it would have unexpected benefits to the forces behind them.
As the number one force under the City Lord's Mansion, the Yang family naturally had this idea. With Yan Yun's suppression before, Yang Zhentian was quite responsible, but now that Yan Yun died, his wolfish ambitions were undoubtedly revealed, and he even attracted many old people from the City Lord's Mansion to deal with Yan Xun together.
"The young city lord said very well. Yang Zhentian and others are really hateful. They will definitely pay the price in the future." At this moment, another commander catered to him, and a hint of anger appeared on his face.
After hearing this person's words, Yan Xun became calmer. He knew very well that the situation was urgent and anger was useless except to burst his mind.
The most important thing now is how to overcome difficulties.
"By the way, how many people did Yang Zhentian win over?" At this moment, Yan Xun said something like this again, but a trace of worry appeared in his eyebrows.
It is not difficult to see that Yang Zhentian's rebellion has just happened not long ago, otherwise, Yan Xun should not have understood these things.
The incident must have happened suddenly, which made Yan Xun feel too late to react.
"Young City Lord, in addition to the major families, we have several other guards who have been attracted by Yang Zhentian. Now at least most of the forces in Qingcheng are against us."
At this moment, the voice of the commander who had spoken before came out, with a hint of worry in his words, and more anger.
"Damn it!" Yan Xun cursed angrily, his eyes were about to spit out fire. After thinking for a while, he suddenly remembered something and asked again, "Master Su, what forces in the city are willing to quell the rebellion with us?"
However, after hearing Yan Xun's words, Su Yu was silent, and a trace of helplessness appeared on her face. Her eyes swept around and found that everyone's eyes were full of expectations. Su Yu suddenly felt extremely stressed, but after coming back to her senses, his expression became firmer again, and she thought to herself, "It's better to tell them the truth."
After thinking of this, Su Yu did not hesitate at all and quickly spoke, "Young City Lord, now all the strength of Qingcheng avoids talking about this matter. Everyone's choice is to watch the wall. This time, our City Lord's Mansion will fight alone."
When he said this, Su Yu burst into tears, and there was a hint of crying in his words. Obviously, even he did not expect that such a thing would happen.
After hearing this, everyone's faces became very ugly, but no one spoke.
The commander here is very loyal to Yan Yun. Even though he knows that the current situation is very unfavorable, he does not retreat at all.
At this moment, another commander stood up and looked at everyone for a few glances. Then he spoke, "Young City Lord, the situation is urgent now. Judging from the subordinates, it is better to notify Mr. Zhang as soon as possible. As long as Mr. Zhang takes action, Yang Zhentian and others will definitely not be able to make trouble."
Obviously, in this person's eyes, Zhang Yang had even gotten rid of the Witch King, and he was even more capable of dealing with a small Yang Zhentian.
As soon as this statement was spoken, others catered to it.
"Young City Lord, the fourth commander said it well."
"Mr. Zhang attaches great importance to the Eight Great City. He will definitely not sit idly by and watch this matter. As long as he takes action, our crisis will be resolved."
"The young city lord, Zhang Shaozhai is kind-hearted and the thing he doesn't want to see is that Miaojiang is in chaos again, and he will definitely take action."
Suddenly, there was a lot of discussion in the hall. After hearing everyone's words, a hint of helplessness appeared on Yan Xun's face. He didn't know what everyone said.
However, Yan Xun knew even more clearly that Yang Zhentian and others had almost no signs of rebellion. I am afraid that there has not been any news from the Holy City yet, so Zhang Yang was even more unaware of what was happening here.
As for reporting Zhang Yang at this time, it is even more undesirable.
"Everyone, I know very well what you said. Judging from the current situation, if Mr. Zhang knew about these things, he would definitely come to quell the rebellion. However, it will take a lot of time to wait for our people to go to the Holy City to report the news and then return to Mr. Zhang. Yang Zhentian will not give us this opportunity."
After looking at everyone for a few glances, Yan Xun said such words, with a hint of helplessness in his words.
After hearing this, Su Yu and others were also silent, without saying anything else, their expressions became gloomy, and they were also clear in their hearts that Yan Xun was right.
But even though they knew that this road was no longer possible, these commanders still had no fear at all.
At this moment, Yan Xun's voice came out again, "Of course, we can't surrender. The Holy City still needs notification. However, before Mr. Zhang comes to Qingcheng, whether he can keep it depends on us."
Even though Yan Xun didn't say it very clearly, Su Yu and others still understood what he meant. The former implied that the disaster in Qingcheng could only be overcome by themselves.
As Yan Xun said before, Yang Zhentian knew very well that once Zhang Yang came to Qingcheng, he would not have any chance, so he had to deal with the city lord's mansion before this.
